ABSTRACT:

Introduction: The work and living environments of the population are two of the main causes of respiratory disease in Côte d’Ivoire. This study determined the prevalence of respiratory diseases and their associated factors in the population of Attécoubé Lagoon, Abidjan district. 
Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on a total of 170 people in Attécoubé Lagune, Côte d’Ivoire. A questionnaire was used to inquire about socioeconomic characteristics, occupational factors and respiratory symptoms of the respondents. Pulmonary function tests were performed by spirometry, looking for the presence of respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The relationship between our variables of interest and respiratory diseases was determined by logistic regression analysis.
Results: The results of the study showed that 45.45% of residents with respiratory disease reported high exposure to air pollutants. Pulmonary function tests estimated the prevalence of respiratory diseases at 25.88%, including 20.59% asthma and 5.29% chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Multivariate analysis revealed that respondents with a history of coughing were 3.2 times more likely to develop respiratory disease [OR: 3.2, 95% CI (1.37 – 7.54)].
Conclusion: The study conducted in Attécoubé Lagoon revealed that most of the people surveyed with clinical signs reported having a respiratory illness. Pulmonary function tests showed a high prevalence of respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. A history of coughing was the main factor associated with the occurrence of respiratory diseases among people living in Attécoubé Lagoon.
